It has a limit, I believe the average is years for an SSD. HDDs have more ways to die though. Bearings in the motor can wear out, or the heads can get stuck to the drive and scratch it. I go 31 GB left!!! Works like a charm. I had to hide a bit of wire, but it allowed me to set the drive down a few shelves. I don't have to worry about that hard drive heat and the drive actually performs a little better than the that I had.

The only bad part is forgetting to turn on the drive case power. They really need an instant on feature in those when a signal is detected in the eSATA port. Well a RAID sub-system would make a substantial difference with 3.

Seriously guys. Get a gigantic rpm drive. Much cheaper, usually same amount of cache, and it has less chance of overheating.

We'll outline the results below. Temperature testing against the two hard drives yielded a minimal difference; no overheating will occur with a rpm drive, ostensibly. Installing demos after downloading off the PSN had an average of ten seconds shaved off due to the higher rpm drive, except that Tony Hawk demo, with destroyed over forty seconds of install time. You're only trying to decrease load times, nothing else. Now, if you've personally had bad experiences with Seagate, my point is moot.
